From its foundation in 1986, the Philippe Saire Company has created some thirty shows, with more than 1,400 performances in 200 cities across Europe, Africa, Asia, the Middle East and America. The Company also performs regularly at art galleries, in gardens, urban spaces and other outdoor venues. From 2002 to 2012, the Cartographies project, which combines performances and video production, has born witness to Saire’s constant desire to get dance out of the interior performing space. The 11 in situ choreographies, filmed by 9 producers from French-speaking Switzerland, including Lionel Baier, Fernand Melgar, Bruno Deville, Pierre-Yves Borgeaud and Philippe Saire himself, were shown 300 times in festivals around the world. This taste for experimentation also led to the creation of a an ongoing series called Dispositifs with choreographies on the verge of visual arts. Cie Philippe Saire is in permanent residency at Théâtre Sévelin 36, Lausanne.

Blickfelder Festival: Bachibouzouk
Imagine waking up in the middle of the night – suddenly everything is different!
The floor glitters, the walls breathe, and animals, mountains and fantastical creatures emerge from shimmering foils. Welcome to the world of Bachibouzouk – the wild, fearless and cheeky spirit beings!
A boy encounters these spirit beings when he wakes up in the middle of the night in an unknown world. A mischievous duo – at once clowns, ghosts and inventors – take visible pleasure in placing obstacles in his path. The boy overcomes trials, survives battles and grows beyond himself in the process.
With outstanding dance, Bachibouzouk tells of challenges that bring people together and of shared dreams that keep friendships alive.
